Addy Osmani leaves Google after 14 years and joins Anthropic to work on Claude Code
Addy Osmani announced on X that he has joined Anthropic and will work on Claude Code, "making it better for developers who use it," shipping a Fable-generated Three.js demo with the post (4,287 likes, 169,860 views). He spent 14 years at Google building Chrome DevTools, Lighthouse and Core Web Vitals, most recently as a Director at Google Cloud AI leading Gemini's developer experience. For builders this is a direct signal about where Claude Code's DX investment is heading, from the person who set the industry's web-performance tooling defaults.
